So, how serious is the legal battle between Apple and the various Android phone makers, really? Surely, it's just logical business sense that's behind it, right? Calculated, well-planned precision strikes designed to hurt Android where simply making better, more innovative products isn't enough? Well, no, not really. We already knew Steve Jobs took this personal - now we know just how personal.

They weren't a competitor at that time. As Jobs stated at All Things D with Walt Mossberg, " We didn't go out and build a search engine did we?" And if anyone thinks that people sitting on the BOD don't get to sees working prototypes of future products, you obviously are tards.
